My friend invited me here today for some shrimp dumplings and noodles. I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere of the place it's nice and cozy. The food was delicious. Will return.
I drive for 1:30 m to get food for my employees and
I order pork congee add pork River also egg the server say I can't add too many I said but am willing to pay and she yelled in my bestie's face I know she try to explain but the manner and hospitality are in very rude and I also told her I need her to wrap my food with produce bag and make sure is secure because I have been having a bad experience before.
Here is my breakdown
Food is excellent fresh and super hot ( temperature )
Ambiance is normal
Service need to be improve

First time here. Ordered the wonton soup, wontons are huge with simple and flavorful broth, and enjoyed the special pan fried rolls with chili oil on the side. Service was quick and attentive, parking available in the back.
HUGE Fish Balls and Shrimp Won Tons, did i say HUGE? yes HUGE. if you like big portions of noodles and food this the place for you. i did a youtubereviewvideo on my channel. Very Chinese place and that is a good thing.
Super clean, focused restaurant with a small menu that they execute well. I appreciated the congee has sufficient ingredients in it compared to other restaurants serving congee. Great experience, huge portions, and service was excellent!!
It’s an amazing place for authentic Cantonese noodles and congee. The best part of my meal was this chili sauce! I bought a jar 🫙:)
With the name "the congee" you expect some really good tasty congee. This restaurant definitely pulls through on that and served a delicious bowl of flavorful congee. Got the duck egg and pork variation and wish I could have had another! The wonton mein with house fish balls was just as good and satisfying. The wonton were packed with shrimp and tasty; this soup dish could stand alone in its own restaurant! The salt and pepper wings were freshly fried and had a decent amount of seasoning. I wonder why we're given all flats and no drumettes though? Chinese thing? hmmm. Regardless, decent prices keep this place honest and people like me coming back consistently.
The wontons here are huge! Each wonton contain 3-4 shrimps in it, very succulent. The beef stew is also very tender as well. Food orders comes out quickly after order even on a busy lunch hour on Saturday. For take out orders the food is still hot and fresh tasting, they don't let food sit till cold or luke warm. They take phone orders as well, kitchen is very organized and fast like a well oiled machine. I ordered at the counter waited about 7-10 minutes to get my order. Take out orders were well packed with chopsticks, napkins, chili oil, red vinegar by default. Menu is in English and Chinese, while staff speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese.
